A BOMBSHELL FOR THE BISHOPS.
Harrington Accuses the Irish Prelates of
deliberate Ioplicity.
DrPLiv, March li Timothy Harrinp
"n, M P., has thrown a bombshell into
the camp of the Irish bishops. In a l itter

accusations furnishes the original copy of
a joint letter which the bishops wrote to
Parnell on Oct 15, before the 0"Shea l.ris.

Dillon and O'Brien, whose independec t ac
tion, they declare, is calculated to sepj irate
the moral element from national pol tics.
This has reference to the action of Dillon
and O'Brien in holding independent tiee4'

and Tarnell is earnestly besought to ex

boldly than ever before. Ttie govern tue-t
is aware of the danger, and the troops are
kept on the alert to deal with an inso rre.--tion,

dullness of trade a large number of paop

MEDICAL. I
Patent medicines differ
One has reasonableness, an
other has not. One has repu
tation another has not. One
has confidence, bom of suc
cess another has only
"hopes."
Don't take it for granted
that all patent medicines are
alike. They arc not.
Let the years of uninter
rupted success and the tens
of thousands of cured and
happy men and women, place
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription
on the side of the comparison
they belong.
And there isn't a state or
territory, no nor hardly a
country in the world, whether
its people realize it or not,
but have men and women
in them that're happier be
cause of their discovery and
their effects.
Think of this in Health.
Think of it in sickness. And
then think whether you can
afford to make the trial if
the makers can afford to take
the risk to give your noney
back as they do if they do
not benefit or cure you.
